Thanks for posting that information @Lindapetherick . I have been trying to get that information out and about to others as well (see my post above dated 10th may).

I feel free to put it on here as I made a point that any information I received I would share with other members of the general public. "We haven’t had any members of the public attend/listen in to our meetings but I know the meetings are being recorded and notes made plus of course they are open and ...

I agree with Deedoodle's last sentence. Last Sunday I walked along the joint cycle/pedestrian path from Cockwood to D. Warren. Not one cyclist who approached me from behind used a bell to alert me to their presence. I am not anti-cyclist. Far from it. But I have had close encounters when using joint paths.
